Oscar Salazar

Ride

Employed by Uber from: 2009 to 2011

Position at Uber: founding member

Where he is now: Although there's some dispute about it, early Uber documentation refers to Salazar as a cofounder of the company. He and Camp attended business school together then built Uber's first prototype with another school friend, Conrad Whelan.

Salazar departed the company amicably soon after it launched. Now Salazar is the chief product and technology officer at Ride, a logistics startup that's focused on commuters and carpooling.

Employed by Uber from: 2010 to present

Position at Uber: head of global expansion and head of process

Where she is now: Geidt started at Uber as an overdressed intern and employee number four; she says she struggled for the first months. At first, her job wasn’t well defined, and saw her moving from handing out flyers to passersby to cold-calling drivers. She also took customer-service calls at three in the morning. But now she heads up Uber’s global expansion, which has spread to 300 cities in 50 countries.

Where he is now: Graves previously worked in a database-administrator position at General Electric before landing a stint at Foursquare that he acquired by working for them for free after the company initially turned him down.

His stake in Uber is worth about $1.5 billion.

Where he is now: Whelan was Uber’s first engineer and worked on “everything and the kitchen sink” after moving to San Francisco from his native Calgary, Canada. He built the sign-up flows that allowed Uber to actually have any users.

Position at Uber: regional general manager for Uber East Coast

Where she is now: After getting an MBA from Stanford, Holt decided to move across the country to DC to be with her boyfriend (now husband). She answered a job listing to launch Uber in DC and, 10 days later, Uber did its first DC ride. The market turned out to be one of Uber’s most combative and the first where it had regulatory issues. But Holt has stayed, and is now the regional general manager for Uber East Coast.
